Comments on the image?
I just think they should cocentrate on getting other stuff done then getting skateboards active..

They should add different drills that mine at different speeds for certain levels. =]

Irrelevant!

Smite him!

CharlieM · #4 01-16-2009, 04:55 AM

Thats because its all kimmy does for dev or can do

Frankie · #5 01-16-2009, 05:37 AM

oh yeah watch out skateboard updates here we come new era 8)

DustyPorViva · #6 01-16-2009, 05:47 AM

Minor stuff is always going to get updated. You can't just blow off 'smaller' things because there are things you might consider more important.

Frankie · #7 01-16-2009, 05:48 AM

yes you can

There's no reason to. There is always 'something more important' to put time into. Yet there are always people idling on RC or just blabbering on RC. At least something is getting updated, especially when it was meant to happen sooner or later.

If this was the attitude towards minor stuff, skateboards and other 'less important stuff' would have never came out anyways, because time could have been 'better spent'.

This obviously isn't on the top of the do list for Crow, but for a minor update by someone else atleast it's something I guess. Personally I'm next in line for Crow to help <3 Win

Crow's working very hard at the moment on the new minimap radar so he aint got time to do anything else, i think this is good that kimmy is doing this in her time small little projects to keep a few people happy.

Frankie · #11 01-16-2009, 08:03 PM

well it just goes to show how pathetic updates have been if people are going crazy over skateboard updates.

Tigairius · #12 01-16-2009, 08:19 PM

As I said in another thread the skateboard updates were made by Kimmy in her spare time. She is not a GAT, she is a LAT, and the skateboards are completely unrelated to her work on Era.

Frankie · #13 01-16-2009, 08:20 PM

so what is she doing outside of her spare time?

BlueMelon · #14 01-17-2009, 03:33 AM

Well i suppose its one way to drain useless money out of economy :S

DarkRenji · #15 01-17-2009, 03:55 AM

Why did they have to remove some skateboreds to add these? I liked the others

Pelikano · #16 01-17-2009, 12:55 PM

*cough*Appartements*cough*

I bet that was the true reason of HM quitting, he didnt get his appartements LOL

Aldaris · #17 01-19-2009, 08:44 AM

I think that this update is useless, but at least it's something. Sadly, it reminds me of the motorbikes that pulled a Houdini on us...

Comment disregarded due to lack of spelling, please refer to dictionary.com for details.

Anyways, minimal updates have been released recently. No Gmap seems to be in order for quite some time. What is the staff doing?

Not true. The new gmap IS being worked on currently.

xJenn · #20 01-20-2009, 12:23 AM

I was the one who updated the skateboards. If you got something to say about them then PM.
I've already told you guys who have complained about the skateboards being updated.
I only did them because I was bored, and I had photoshop up anyways.
They didn't take long and it's fun to do other things besides making levels from 16 x 16 pixel tiles.

CharlieM · #21 01-20-2009, 12:55 AM

A LAT should see level making as fun...

I'm pretty sure nothing is fun if you do it over and over again without trying something else occasionally

xJenn · #23 01-20-2009, 01:20 AM

What Sales said.
And anyway, as someone else said, there needs to be more in the tileset.

CharlieM · #24 01-20-2009, 01:35 AM

I thought the tileset was pretty full myself I haven't opened it on this pc so I haven't opened it recently because Eras got that buggy offline tiledefs problem. I used to build levels over and over again, I would even do them with OLE's and I never lost interest in it

xJenn · #25 01-20-2009, 01:39 AM

Then apply for LAT :3 You'd be great on the Team I guess :3

CharlieM · #26 01-20-2009, 01:39 AM

See second part of my post

xJenn · #27 01-20-2009, 01:45 AM

Yeah, well when that gets fixed. x:

Frankie · #28 01-20-2009, 03:42 AM

after leveling for quite a few years I think I can safely say that the tileset is extremely boring. icarus did a lot of neat editting to some tiles which needs to be done to a lot more of the tileset, along with additions that MATCH the tileset.
